Sony US Confirms VPL-HW10 and VPL-VW70 Projectors ($3,500 or $8,000, Your Choice)
Sony may have teased us with its newest projectors at IFA, but today in the US, the company announced availability and pricing. We guessed $3,000 for the VPL-HW10, but we were close but not totally right. The solid 1080p Bravia SXRD (LCOS-based) projector with 30,000:1 dynamic contrast is a "value" play, but it's still expensive at $3,500. The step-up VPL-VW70 doubles the contrast, and lets you fit an external lens that morphs the picture into a 2.35:1 widescreen ratio without losing pixels. (That extra lens is sold separately.) The VW70 is $8,000. There aren't much more details about either yet, but what we do have is below. More » -

CEDIA 2008: We're Here!
The mighty custom installer show known as CEDIA comes but once a year, with its projectors, its media servers, its extra big-ass speakers and maybe a THX-certified toaser oven or two. We're here in Denver to absorb it all, and share with you the tastiest bits. Stay tuned, cuz the press conferences start around 3pm EST, and the news keeps popping until the end of the week. Aloha, Denver... we have arrived. [CEDIA Expo]
